IMPROVEMENT IN BROILERS.

TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:

Be it known that I, HENRY H. JOHNSON, of New Haven, in the county of New Haven, and State of Connec. ticut, have invented a new Improvement in Meat Broiler; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in-

Figure 1, a perspective view, and in Figure 2 a section of a stove top with the broiler inserted into the stove to show the object and operation of the broiler.

This invention relates to an improvement in broilers whereby they may be set down into the stove and then held by the cover of the stove in the proper relative position to the fire, andfconsists in the construction of the broiler with an upright arm provided at different heights with shoulders to set into the shoulder of the stove cover, and by the stove cover resting on the shoulder the broiler is held in its proper position. i

To enable others to construct and use my improvement, I will proceed to describe the same as illustrated in the accompanying drawings. 7

A is the broiler, constructed of any convenient or desirable form, and from any suitable material. C is an upright arm formed upon or attached to the broiler A, and is bent or formed into shoulders a b c, more or less, terminating in any convenient handle B. I prefer to make my broiler from hat or round wire, forming the handle and broiler from one and the same piece, as this is the cheapest form of construction, but as before stated the material or form of construction is not essential. I

Its use is as follows: D represents the top of the stove or broiling place, and E the cover fitted in the usual manner. The meat or article to be broiled is placed upon the broiler A, the cover E removed, and the broiler inserted through the opening until one ofthe shoulders rests upon the shoulder of the stove top, as seen in fig. 2. Then replace the cover, which resting on the shoulder of the broiler, holds it firmly in that position. By the several shoulders the broiler may be set down to the proper distance from the fire. Thus the broiling is done entirely within the stove orfire-place, and no smoke or steam can escape therefrom.

Having therefore thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and useful, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

A broiler, A, constructed with an arm, C, provided with one or' more shoulders b c, and so as to operate substantially as herein set forth.
